Broadcast-Ready AI Video in Sydney

A raw AI generation is an 8-bit, 24 fps H.264 file. Nothing about it is broadcast-legal. For Sydney campaigns going to air we plan the frame rate at generation, uplift bit depth, grade in Resolve and master to ProRes 422 HQ with OP-59 audio, so the spot clears CAD and QC first time.

Why Sydney Clients Work With ApostleNO. /01

Sydney is where most national TVC and BVOD campaigns are cleared and delivered, and where Apostle's studio, grading suite and freelancer network are based.

This is where we are. The studio, the grading suite and the freelancer network are on Sydney's lower north shore, and most national TVC and BVOD work is cleared and delivered from here.

Our Bankwest brand film, about 95% AI-generated imagery, was produced and finished here.

Where Raw AI Output Fails Network QCNO. /03

A generation is 8-bit, 24 fps, H.264. The network wants 10-bit ProRes 422 HQ at 25 or 50 fps with loudness-compliant audio and head and tail silence. Every one of those gaps is closed in post, and we plan for them at the brief stage, starting with frame rate. Read the Australian delivery spec guide.
